Hi all!

I'm running out of spark with my RB25DET S2.

I have fresh sparkplugs and the coilpacks seems externally undamaged.

Anyway, now I'm planning on updating the coilpacks.

There's a bunch of different kinds of aftermarket coilpacks, but are there really any difference between them except the price?

Found this relatively cheap coilpack set on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.u...=item1c27d92b13

Does anyone know how this works? Any good?

Many thanks on the replies!

What's the difference between yellow jackets and the red splitfires? Are they the same?

Splitfires are blue

Splitfires are the best

Nearly 4 years with mine and not a single hiccup.

They will all create spark, but some are more reliable then others

To add to this thread, I recently bought a R33 and went to replaced the spark plugs and to my disbelief, I am running 5x Yellow Jackets and 1x OEM coilpack. So off to eBay I went to try and find 1x Yellow Jacket and instead saw these coilpacks "APPARENTLY" made in Japan and only $250 delivered from Japan... I do however find it too good to be true.

They are backed witha 2 year warranty (no idea how dafuq that's going to work LOL)

Cheap

Look like Superspark Coilpacks

I'm a tad game on trying them, considering the Yellow Jacket distributor wants $100 delivered for just 1x coilpack.. what a rip off!

Seriously - just go Splitfires.

There are so many folk on here that buy everything else but splitfires to save money and have issues with at least 1 of 6.

Some have had them replaced free of charge and again at least 1 failure out of 6.

I've seen 2 reports of these Fuji coilpacks (red) misfiring on N/A skylines, 1 coilpack failing within the first couple of weeks.. i'd hate to see how badly they perform with more added stress (turbo skyline).

I bought genuine oem coils off ebay for my s2 recently for $250 delivered :)

I still can't wrap my head around brand new OEM coils for $250.. when they're like $100+ for each coil from most traders

They were over $1000 a set from Nissan!

I bought an ebay set and they look genuine and seem to work ok. I heard they came from a bankrupted Nissan dealer in the US though why they would have huge stocks of them I don't know. I hope they are not fake but are working so far at 20psi and 280kw. See what happens with a bit more power.

On another note a Stagea owner says his Yellowjackets broke down after 18 months!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
